TVS - Diodes

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are extremely fast, voltage-protective components that provide a wide range of protection solutions. These components protect against transient voltage surges that can damage external circuitry.

The A5KP36A-G is a unidirectional diode manufactured by Alpha and Omega Semiconductor. It is part of their A-Series TVS diode array family. This diode consists of two series connected 600W 5.0V zener diodes with integral protection diodes in a surface-mount flat package. Its features include an ultra-low capacitance rating, a low total capacitance of 2.02pF(Typ.), and a standard SOT-23 package.

Application of A5KP36A-G

The A5KP36A-G is designed for ESD and surge Protections application. It enables fast protection from transients up to +15kV on signal and data lines. It eliminates the need for a large capacitor on the printed circuit board during power up. It is also suitable for other application such as 5V powered portable electronics, while line transceivers, industrial controllers, LED drivers, and hand-held electronics.

Working Principle of A5KP36A-G

The A5KP36A-G is a bi-directional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode. This diode is designed with two series-connected zener diodes and integral protection diodes. Together, these components form an array which limits the voltage of the power supply to its safe operating range.

The device is designed to clamp incoming transient energy to voltage values that are safe for the connected components, ensuring system reliability and integrity. It should be placed as close as possible to the component that needs to be protected in order to provide maximum system protection. This diode is designed to protect against both ESD and surge energy, with an operating frequency of up to 3GHz.

The A5KP36A-G is a bi-directional diode, meaning it can be used for protection in both positive and negative power systems, depending on the direction of the voltage transient. It is also designed to have very low capacitance, allowing it to be used in high-speed applications such as Ethernet, USB, and VGA.

Conclusion

The A5KP36A-G is an excellent choice for ESD and surge protection application, with its fast response time and high power dissipation. It is designed with low capacitance, making it suited for high-speed applications, and it is bi-directional, enabling it to be used in both positive and negative power systems. This diode is a great choice for designers looking to ensure proper protection for their systems.
